Accounts

Services provided by the GP Practices are subject to fees and charges in line with those recommended by the British Medical Association or negotiated with the States of Guernsey. For a schedule of fees please click here.

Insurance
Fees for most treatments can be covered by medical insurance and each company has its own procedures and method of claiming. In some cases, and for some types of treatment, payment can be claimed directly by the Practice from the insurance company. In other cases, the patient has to fill in a claim form.

Whilst the Practice can provide leaflets regarding insurance companies and is happy to give advice about procedures, it is of course the patient’s responsibility to ensure that payment is made. The Practice regrets that it is unable to enter into discussions with insurers on the patient’s behalf.

Accident and Emergency charges
Although treatment is available free of charge for those admitted to hospital wards, treatment in A & E is provided by island GPs who of course have to be paid for their work. Fees for treatment in A & E are billed by the patient's own Practice .

Payment
We urge patients to pay at the time of their consultations as this minimises administration and helps to keep charges down. Payment may be made by debit or credit card without additional charge.

Various schemes exist for those patients who are unable to meet the costs of medical care and the Practice is happy to advise on this.

If you have a query on your account or are suffering financial hardship that makes it impossible to pay your medical bills at present then please......
